Happy Holidays

We would like to wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season this year. It has been one crazy year with many changes and miracles. We are so greateful for everyone's friendship and love and would not have been able to be here today without all of you. The love and remembrance of our Savior has blessed us each.

There is also good news to share with everyone. Last week we were told the wonderful news that so far the tumor that was removed in February this year has no sign of returning thus far and my percentages of it coming back are slim now after several MRI's the last few months have been clear and look fantastic. We are still waiting on the EEG results to see if there is a reason for the seizures but all in all things are looking up. We are also testing several other medications and doses to see if we can get the headaches under control or the source of them. It is really nice to have some normal days without the headaches after so many years. They would like them to be minimal so we are still working on that one. Our family has been very lucky this year and many things to be grateful for.

The kids went to visit Santa Clause this past weekend. I think we were as excited as the kids to visit him. Our little Katelyn is so smart and would only tell Santa this year what she would like him to bring her. This challenge has been an interesting one but the puzzle was resolved with a visit to the big SC. Shawn is still in his Star Wars mode and trains so his list was easy to know. We are starting to wonder if he is going to grow out of this stage and feel bad that for the last several Christmas's it has been the same theme for him. Although it makes it so you alwaysknow what he likes and not to go wrong in that department.

Happy Holidays to everyone!
